Unhealthiest Drinks in America


The Unhealthiest Drink in America

Baskin Robbin’s Large Heath Bar Shake (32 oz)
2,310 calories
266 g sugar
108 g fat (64 g saturated)

The Numbers:
73: The number of ingredients in this milkshake.
66: Teaspoons of sugar.
11: The number of Heath Bars you would eat to equal the calories found in this milkshake.
240: The number of minutes on the treadmill you’d have to spend burning it off.

Unhealthiest Drinks in America


Worst Summer Cocktail

Pina Colada
625 calories
75 g sugars

The sickly-sweet pineapple juice and fat-riddled coconut milk combine to make the Pina Colada a first-rate summer offender. If you're jonesin' for a cocktail try a lime daiquiri or a mojito and save as much as 400 calories per drink.

Worst Smoothie

Jamba Juice Peanut Butter Moo’d Power Smoothie (30 oz)
1,170 calories
169 g sugars
30 g fat

While Jamba Juice may call this a smoothie, the calorie count puts it more in line with a milkshake; it has more grams of sugar than an entire bag of chocolate chips!

Worst Juice Imposter

Arizona Kiwi Strawberry (23.5 oz can)
360 calories
84 g of sugar

Loaded with sugar (5% juice, 95% sugar water), these hulking calorie cans, sold for just 99 cents nationwide, are quite possibly the cheapest source of empty calories available.

Unhealthiest Drinks in America

Many people claim they eat healthfully yet still can't drop the weight. Big news: you could be sucking up to 20% of your calories through a straw.

Worst "Healthy" Drink

Glaceau VitaminWater (any flavor; 20 oz bottle)
130 calories
33 grams sugar

Vitamins and water may seem like a winning team, but what the label fails to mention is that this drink packs nearly as much sugar and calories as a can of Coke. It should make sense though, as this beverage is produced by the Coca-Cola Company.
